Accommodation
Front porch with glazed double entrance doors and composite door with decorative glazed panels providing access to the welcoming reception hall with hardwood flooring. The generously proportioned, dual aspect sitting room features a part-vaulted ceiling and an attractive stone fireplace housing a wood burning stove, along with patio doors opening onto the side garden. One of the main characteristics of Robins Reach house is undoubtedly the wonderful environment for families and entertaining created by the close proximity of the sitting room, dining room and kitchen/breakfast room.

Accommodation Continued
The dining room also provides extensive useful storage space and the well-crafted kitchen provides a comprehensive array of cabinets, extensive countertop space with inset one and a half bowl sink and is equipped with a range of appliances to include double oven and ceramic hob with stainless steel and glass extractor hood. There is ample space for a breakfast table, fitted spotlight track and patio doors opening onto the private side terrace which is an ideal area for barbeques.

Accessed from the dining room, the inner hallway provides access to the main dormitory area with two comfortable double bedrooms, a spacious single and a family bathroom.
The excellent principal bedroom features both fitted wardrobes and a fully tiled en suite bathroom with suite comprising panelled bath with shower over, vanity unit with washbasin and storage cupboards, and close coupled WC. The remaining three bedrooms, two with a range of fitted wardrobes, all enjoy wonderful views over the garden and countryside beyond.
The well-appointed family bathroom is fully tiled and comprises a bath with independent shower over, vanity unit with inset basin and fitted cupboards, and WC with concealed cistern.

Fully integrated within the property but ideally suited to provide guest or annexe accommodation, there is an area entered from the reception hall but also with an independent access, comprising a laundry/utility room or second kitchen, cloakroom/WC and studio/bedroom with en suite shower room.

Approached via electrically operated gates and a sweeping driveway with large central shrub bed, the superior and well-tended gardens and grounds extend to around an acre, with a fine expanse of lawn interspersed with a wealth of mature trees and shrubs, spinney, hedgerow and a choice of patios and seating areas.

Agents Note:
This former B&B provides very flexible accommodation, which could be reverted to provide B&B ensuite double and twin room accommodation with shared kitchen facilities; or independent single studio accommodation with separate self-contained access; or separate living accommodation for single person or a couple using bedroom 2 as a living room and bedroom 1 as their bedroom, thus providing independent living from the rest of the household; or large shared accommodation for the larger family, including a large study ideal for working from home.

Full profileProperty listings
Following the success of the Huntingdon and St Ives offices, Kimbolton opened in 1997 and quickly established itself as the area’s leading estate agent, continuing the founding office’s ethos of providing exceptional customer service. To this day, we issue satisfaction questionnaires to our vendors and purchasers and, most importantly, take note of their comments. The office plays host to a mature and settled team, exceptionally experienced in all aspects of the buying and selling process and who will relish the opportunity to help you make your move. We are always keen to foster close links within the local community and have the pleasure of sponsoring the Kimbolton Children’s Christmas Party in the Mandeville Hall. The Kimbolton office enjoys close links with the Mayfair Office and regularly holds London Property Events in order to showcase some of the exceptional homes that are available locally. We are privileged to work in what is undoubtedly one of the most attractive areas of the country and the office is perfectly placed close to the borders of Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire, and Northamptonshire. The Three Shires Way is a long distance bridleway which runs between Tathall End in north-east Buckinghamshire and Grafham Water in Cambridgeshire. The route traces the outline of ancient track ways and passes through a beautiful rural landscape. The centrepiece of the village is Kimbolton Castle which forms the main building of Kimbolton School (now an independent day and boarding school), but its predecessor on the same site was once home and prison to Katherine of Aragon, the first wife of Henry VIII.
